SSC CGL 2024 PYQ — Question 9

SSC CGL - 17 Sep 2024 - Shift 2 • English • Q9

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the underlined word in the sentence given below.

I refuse to let anything come in the way of my dreams.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. permit.

"Come in the way" means to obstruct or block something.

The opposite of blocking or obstructing is "permit," which means to allow or let something happen.

Other options:

Repress means to suppress or hold back, but it doesn't directly oppose "come in the way."

Balk means to hesitate or refuse to proceed, but it’s not an exact opposite in this context.

Accord means agreement, which is unrelated to the meaning of "come in the way."
